I think he means that he is not downloading anything on purpose. :wink:


Mclaren:

Do you have an anti virus that might be updating? Maybe windows update is doing its thing?

WHAHAHA IMANOOBIE..lol Misread it TOTALLY.
Get yourself TCPView for Windows:
TCPView is a Windows program that will show you detailed listings of all TCP and UDP endpoints on your system, including the local and remote addresses and state of TCP connections. On Windows Server 2008, Vista, and XP, TCPView also reports the name of the process that owns the endpoint. TCPView provides a more informative and conveniently presented subset of the Netstat program that ships with Windows. The TCPView download includes Tcpvcon, a command-line version with the same functionality.
